Classification surveys are carried out by our qualified surveyors using mainly visual inspection and sampling techniques. They do not consist of comprehensive verification or monitoring. Classification certificates are generally issued for 5 years period, subject to the satisfactory completion of periodical in-service surveys. The most common periodical classification surveys are the annual, intermediate and class renewal surveys. Zolos Maritime comprises authorized surveyors for several Non-IACS classification societies. Additionally, Zolos Maritime is authorized agent of MSR (Mediterranean Shiping Register Non-IACS Member)
Furthermore, Zolos Maritime has authorized surveyors in order to carry out Class and Statutory surveys on behalf of some Non-IACS organizations such as OMCS, ICS, MACOSNAR, MSR, NASHA and PSR etc.
Statutory related verification activities are delivered through our competent surveyors who board vessels in line with the periodic survey program, throughout the phases of design, construction & operation of ships and offshore unit installations. During on board surveys, our surveyors verify level of conformity of IMO International safety instruments, Flag State National Regulations in force, unified interpretations of statutory related norms together with relevant Flag State interpretations. Full Term Certificates are issued by Head Offices exclusively, unless there is a certain Government requirement where full term certificates are issued by the country itself.
Zolos Maritime is providing following statutory certificates through approved R.Os on behalf of several flag states:
